Abstract

Study of the solar and geomagnetic activity influence on the emergency proceedings in Greece, for selected months of solar cycle 23 and especially for the year 2005 is presented. We examined the time association between the magnetic storms (Dst geomagnetic index), daily numbers of solar flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) with the emergency proceedings. The sample of about 30000 cases from two Greek hospitals (The General Hospital of the town of Lamia and The General Hospital of the town of Veria) analyzed according to diagnoses. The cardiological, neurological, accidents (multitrauma and burns) and oncological patients as well as in partially pathological/surgical patients showed an increase during periods of high helio-geomagnetic activity. In order to strengthen this result, more data need to be collected and analyzed.
